Share the vision of the trail with neighbors!
You can help by:
- Hosting a brown bag lunch for co-workers or a house party for friends and neighbors. We will provide a knowledgable person to help share the vision, npGREENWAY maps, a short video, and answer questions.
- Joining our board or one of our teams with a specific focus area.
Team Focus Areas

Advocacy and Outreach Team
We are looking for folks who are active transportation advocates. Do you have experience and connections with local elected officials? Are you involved with schools in North Portland? Do you have affiliations with other organizations that seem like a great partners for npGreenway? The Advocacy and Outreach team works with local decision makers to get the trail built.
Communications and Technology Team
Are you a good writer? Do you have web skills? Are you a social media maven? Help npGreenway get the word out through our newsletter, website and social media outlets. Help build the npGreenway brand!
Events Team
Do you like people? Do you like having fun? The Events Team educates people about the trail and gets them excited and invested in advocating for the trail to be completed. Activities include tabling at events around town, leading rides along existing and proposed sections of the Greenway Trail, and coming up with other fun ideas. If this sounds like fun, then this is the team for you.
Fundraising and Grants Team
Building a trail and running an organization to advocate for the building of a trail takes money. Are you a grant writer? Do you like calling up individuals, businesses and organizations to ask them to help a great cause? If so, we could use your help.
Volunteer teams will meet occasionally to strategize and plan activities to help make the North Portland Greenway Trail a reality. Once you join a volunteer team, the chair of the committee will contact you to let you know when the next meeting is.
